Traffic Related Complaints

Case Date:
8/18/2021

Many of the very many dump trucks going north/south on Monroe St., around the roundabout, and west/east on 17th St. are speeding (not just 6 miles over); many need to get their exhaust pipes fixed (very noisy); and many are polluting--so violating speed, noise, and environmental regulations. Plus, stone, bits of concrete, etc. are dropping off their trucks, particularly in and around the roundabout. I think--but don't know for sure--that the trucks are going in/out of the Tri-North Middle School project. They are different trucking companies (some worse than others), including A+ Performance, Crider, Burke, and Young. Can something be done?

Blocked Street

Case Date:

Often cars traveling west on 3rd St and turning south onto College Mall Rd crowd into the intersection as their light is turning yellow and then red. They then block the intersection so cars traveling East on 3rd St can’t proceed because they are essentially parked in the intersection. Today at about 1730 these cars blocked the intersection for almost the entire green light for those traveling East on 3rd St. My suggestion is to station an officer there and ticket every motorist who blocks the intersection.

Potholes, Other Street Repair

116 S Park Ridge Rd

Case Date:
8/20/2021

Street needs repaved. Filed u-report 8/14/21 reporting same problem which was closed 8/19/21 indicating hot patch crew sent to area. Street in front of my property on west side of street and extending down to Saratoga Drive remains with areas of broken down and damaged pavement that was not hot patched. The patching is a temporary fix that does not last due to the poor drainage. The drain culvert in front of my house is filled with road debris, sand and dirt. After any significant rain, this collects water which does not drain as the culverts need repaired to allow for better drainage to the road drain near Saratoga Drive. The road slopes to the west which compounds the problem. Was told last year the issue with the water collecting in front of my house in the culvert was due to asphalt that was placed at the end of my driveway blocking the flow of the water. My driveway was replaced in March with nothing blocking the culvert now, and it continues to be an issue. I noticed the badly damaged road and culvert on Saratoga Drive was repaired thankfully. Would like to see the same kind of repair done along this area of Park Ridge Rd , however, the majority of the roads and culverts in the addition need attention.

Street & Traffic Signs

312 E 3rd ST

Case Date:
8/21/2021

In regards to the alley in between Lincoln and Grant, behind the Boys and Girls club. As you may know, that stretch of Lincoln is closed due to construction. Currently the only way to access The Boys and Girls Club is through the alley. The Club has asked parents to treat it as a one way, following the flow of Lincoln. Though of course not many are abiding and it’s almost caused me an accident last week. I had a small fender bender in that alley in 2019, he sped through one of the entrances to the alley going towards Grant as I was moving towards 3rd. With heavier traffic through this area for the Club, it’s a creating dangerous mess. I would at the very least suggest temporary “One Way” signs following the flow of Lincoln St during this construction to prevent any accidents and congestion. Thank you for your time.

We just need to slow down the traffic into The Stands going towards the park. Can we get one of the speed measuring signs to let people know how fast they are actually going?

Line of Sight

2898 S Sare RD

Case Date:
9/2/2021

I submitted a report earlier this week, but have an address and a clearer picture of the problem area. This stretch of green is along Sare Road and is the responsibility of the owner of the address given. However, due to inattenttion, entering Sare Road from Spicewood Lane is hazardous to someone driving a car heading north. If you are in a truck or SUV, your line of sight is much better. There is now a great deal of traffic on Sare Road at all times during the day, traveling above the speed limit in many cases, that pulling out onto Sare Road is scary and dangerous.
